An Effort at Reform.

The State Department has worked faith
fully to secure necessary reforms In the
diplomatic and consular service for the past
ten years. Since the present Secretary Of
State, with the assistance Of corps OF
experienced subordinates, has presented
recommendations to Congress, the adoption
Of which would have accomplished results
emlnently beneficial to the service, and
which would have entitled our law makers
gratitude Of the country. Last year the
reorganization bill was reported favorably,
and special day was set aside for It's con.
sideratiou, but either 10y gross negligence
or unfortunate indifference the navy bill
was allowed to crowd II out. Much time
had been given by the Department Of State
to the careful preparation OF the estimates
contained in the bill, and II had a number
Of features which must sooner or later be-
come q part Of our foreign service. Tnis
year the department, believing that the
reorganization bill would not be adopted,
included In the diplomatic and consular
estimates for the fiscal year 1883 several
very important suggestions aiming at au
improvement Of the service. These wise
propositions are now being considered by
Congress, and how many of them will be-
come a law depend entirely upon the wis
dom and patriotism Of the House. II it
should fail to adopt this capital measure,
after few slight notifications which are
necessary, IL will fail TO discharge one Of
the most important duties 1t owes to the
country.

tion, New York has three miles, Philadel-
pbia five, aud Los Angeles two miles OF
single track. Omaha has three miles pro-
jected.
The lines enumerated included only those
in the city proper or lines running to i'm
mediate suburbs. Not less important are
the dummytlines which have revolutlonized
opinions regarding the value Of suburban
property. In respect to this mode Of transit
Kansas City is rapidly taking front rank.
The Kansas City, Independence and Park
road will soon afford the people OF 1nde-
pendence quick communication with the
parent city. Over 100000 has already
been expended on the line and IL will be
opened for travel early In next summer. 1t
will be fifteen miles In length and will con-
meet with the Independence avenue, Ninth,
Twelfth, and Fifteenth street cable lines.
In other words, residents OF Independence
can, by changing cars twice, so from that
suburb TO the western suburb, Wyandotte,
o distance OF fourteen miles, In something
less than an hour. BY taking the Fifteenth
street line and making two changes, they
can reach Westport via the Grand avenue
cable line In about the same time.
Another company, composed largely OF
the stockholders Of the Kansas City Cable
terminus OF the Troost avenue cable to the
Waldo racing park, distance OF five miles,
and Mr.. George Sheidley and his associates
are asking for a franchise for a dummy
road running from Ninth street south on
Baltimore and south Of the southwest
boulevard to Rosedale. 1t Is also believed
that the Grand avenue company will have
to supplement its Fifteenth street road
with dummy line for self-protectiou. The
roads already in course Of construction, II
no others are built, will add twenty miles
to Kansas City's street railway system.
Besides the Rosedale line the only dummy
line yet projected to run into the city Is the
Vine street line. Its builders ask fran.
chise for road running south on Vine
street from Eighteenth. The old dummy
engines were so Objectionable that 1t is not
surprising that property owners should be
chary about inviting the new ones. The
motors Of late introduced, however, are SC
cleanly and so noiseless that, cost and other
advantages considered, they are In every
way superior to the cable motor.
Mr.. William Askew is an enthusiastic
admirer Of the dummy system. 81 don't
blame people who have seen the old en-
gines in operation for being fearful OF the
new," said he. 81 remember to have rid
den on the old Cincinnati river line. II
was as noisy as asnarrow gauge road, and
the locomotive had finally to be taken OF.
"The dummy line in operation in Wheel
ing, w. Va, is an altogether different sort.
II runs from the heart OF the city and
alongside the national pike to Fulton, au
eastern suburb of Wheeling. The motor IL
small, noiseless, and consumes its OWL
smoke and steam. drove out on the na'
tional pike, when was In Wheeling last
summer, and found that the trains did
not disturb horses at all. 1t is In every
way as desirable as cable line. II the
council has any doubt about the matter
the projectors should induce 1t to send
committee to Wheeling TO examine the roa(
there. Their report could not but be favor
able.n

ATTENTION is invited to extracts from
the press Of the city of Richmond, the CAPT
tai Of the state Of Virginia, relative to the
importance-in fact, the necesslty-of pass
ing the Blair bill and taking the tax of TO-
bacco. This House of Representatives, uu-
der the control Of the Democracy, requires
surgical treatment-heroiG treatment--the
kind of treatment that Benton recon.
mended for some of bis opponents, namely,
TO be cut for the simples or the big head
perhaps for both. At least IL Is what our
esteemed Democratic contemporaries of
Richmond think.

THE House bill to charter the Washing
ton Cable Company of the District OF
Columbia should be amended In the Senate
in such manner as to provide for the pay.
ment Of per cent. of Its gross earnings
each year into the public treasury, to com.
mence five years from the date of its ac.
ceptance Of the charter. This is sound
public policy, and should be enforced with
out fear or favor upon all District street
railroad companies. Congress shou d
amend the charters of the present horse
railroad companies and require them to pay
5 per cent OF their gross earnings, to COM
mence from the date Of the passage Of
